Navar hadn't finished some tidying up work on the deck so I headed over in quiet, basically no wind, conditions. I did not have access to a weather forecast as there was no WiFi in the anchorage and by the time I arrived at Navar a westerly was blowing about 6-10 knots. The westerly is the dangerous wind there. Despite loads of space the mooring did not go well as the wind and waves blew me alongside the wall. I eventually sorted it out by pulling the slime lines in etc and adjusting the stern lines (I had help but the chap didn't really know what he was doing. The errors leading to me being alongside were all mine of course) and then arranged the passarelle as normal. Despite the modest winds there were already choppy waves on the wall and the passarelle struggled to stay in one place. I spoke to Bojo who sent the guy down immediately who finished the job in about an hour. I asked and he said I could go shopping meanwhile. I asked because I could see the sea building and the poor boat being chucked around all over the place. By the time I got back it was really very difficult to get on and off the boat and if it had hit the wall there would have been substantial damage.
